1987 Ford L8000 semi.
Last year during harvest I noticed that the air brakes were bleeding off different. It was shorter bursts of air. Like, running down the road it would bleed off six times a mile. Yesterday I ran a load of bales - all still the same. Good pressure and all. Electric brakes on the bale trailer.
Today it is REALLY short cycling. Tiny burst of air bleed off every 15 seconds or so at idle. Air pressure still good. It doesn't matter whether the trailer has air or electric brakes - still the same.
What do I need to do to the bleed off valve?
